Life with Kunjal

Sunday, August 29, 2010

6 years

The month of August was quite a handful. Lots of things happened .
Kunjal started going to Gyeonggi suwon international school from 9th of this month. The first day we accompanied her . Most of the kids were new to that school (except a few who came from kindergarten of same school). The schools timings are quite long from 8 am to 3:05 pm . She leaves home by 7:50am.

First day over happily.

Within a week she made two new friends .One Japanese girl named China and a cute Korean boy named Joseph who also comes back from school along with Kunjal.

he is still missing her old school and friends but new school seems exciting as she has music ,art ,gym korean and swimming lessons .
On 24th we had a parents meeting with the teacher and PTA meeting.

On 28th of this month we went to camping at Gangwon do . It was first time that we spent overnight in the tent .Kunjal was too excited to sleep inside the tent whole night in the middle of mountain and hearing the stream passing by.
